Bannon Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Can anyone guide me to a reliable (demographic I suppose) site that shows the amount of Brits moving to France and where they settle? Maybe Living France has done one?Cheers guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitty Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 I've just spent a frustrating time, trying to find out if this information exists as I'm interesting in finding out. The only thing that I found a "quality of life" survey of where people could live but not where the Brits actually live.http://www.french-property.com/newsletter/2008/1/15/places/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anton Redman Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 I do not think there is any acurate information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patf Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 INSEE, the french govt.'s statistics department, published a book in 2005: Les Immigrés en France. Cost 15€ .Probably based on the last census rsults. Sounds as if it might have the information you're looking for. Look on Google under Insee demographie.

Gluestick Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Unfortunately INSEE's stats don't seem to sub-divide into les Anglais.http://www.insee.fr/fr/ffc/chifcle_fiche.asp?ref_id=NATCCI02124&tab_id=427&souspop=4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bannon Posted March 3, 2008 Author Share Posted March 3, 2008 I did look at these on got the same result. Strange - the info must be out there somewhere. Hmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 [quote user="Bannon"] Strange - the info must be out there somewhere. Hmm [/quote]I can understand you wanting to know but why do you feel so sure the information must be out there?On another thread a few days ago someone (sorry, can't remember who now) made what I thought was a sweeping statement about where Brits live but couldn't come up with any facts to support it.Any way, best of luck in your search as I agree it would be interesting to know.

Cat Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 As far as I can see, this information is available, but only on a region by region basis, and not for all regions. The INSEE data for this seems to be available for each region, but not every region breaks down European member states into individual countries. The links to each region's data are here http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%C3%A9mographie_des_r%C3%A9gions_de_FranceFor Midi-Pyrenees, for example, in 1999 there were 6,307 "britanniques" living in the region, part of a total of 100,474 foreigners, and 2,452,222 French. You could, like me, try searching using the keywords "Répartition de la population étrangère" AND britannique OR royaume-unibut there's not a lot out there, believe me [:(] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chessfou Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Not hard numbers, but useful comparatives from the Total France site. They have 9,700 forum members (this is only a small percentage of the number of UK ressortissants and very heavily skewed to those with time on their hands, primarily due to retirement, to post on a forum - emphasised by the fact that they only have 199 members in Paris & Seine et Marne combined).By region:2112 Poitou-Charentes1422 Limousin1125 Aquitaine (including 685 in Dordogneshire) 874 Bretagne 771 Midi-Pyrénées 603 Loire 547 Languedoc-Roussillon etc.By département:818 Charente719 Haute Vienne685 Dordogne512 Creuse507 Deux-Sèvres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
